Green Builder Magazine Names Ingersoll Rand an Eco-Leader for Third Consecutive Year

Companies recognized as Eco-Leaders are paving the way to a
sustainable future with breakthrough technologies and inventive
approaches to reducing their collective footprint.

This honor highlights a number of key attributes that differentiate
our approach to energy efficiency and sustainability, specifically our
Climate Commitment to greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction and re-manufacturing
process to rebuild used equipment to put back into service.

“In 2014 we made a significant commitment to reduce environmental
impacts from our operations and product portfolio by 2030. Since
making the announcement we’ve avoided more than of 6.7 million metric
tons of CO2 globally,” said Scott Tew, executive director,
Center for Energy Efficiency & Sustainability at Ingersoll Rand.
“We are actively working with universities, other industries and
non-governmental organizations to develop a roadmap for transitioning
products which currently have no viable alternative eco-friendly solutions.”

Green Builder Magazine honored us in 2016 for our Climate
Commitment, employee engagement initiatives and Green Teams. It
praised our holistic approach to sustainability by weaving energy
efficiency and sustainability into the fabric of the organization.

year. By 2030, the company expects to reduce its carbon footprint by
50 million metric tons.
